Lyrics for Quiet Life

Bright lights Bitter streets Spent too much time on my knees Round here, nothing's good for me But I still can't make the choice to leave Well that's why I dream all night Of a quiet life That you can't provide Where I was born and raised Was concrete in the rain I never thought I'd want a quiet life Until you came my way I never knew that I would need to get away For a quiet life today Oh, I need to get away For a quiet life today Before you came around I had a lot more laughs and a lot more pounds Now I lose myself by choice Tryna get a bit of silence in a world of your noise I'm a coward cause I know That I can't say no To a life round here That I don't even own Where I was born and raised Was concrete in the rain I never thought I'd want a quiet life Until you came my way I never knew that I would need to get away For a quiet life today Oh, I need to get away For a quiet life today The world I always knew Was busy streets and crowded rooms I never thought I'd want a quiet life Until I met you But you know that I won't go Cause I'm a coward don't you know? I'm a coward Don't you notice? I'm a coward Don't you know this? I'm a coward Don't you notice? Ah, don't you know? Ah, don't you know?
